Description

With its singular blend of regionally inspired Mexican sound, stunning koa beauty and exceptional playability, there’s never been a Taylor like the 260ce-K DLX Doce Doble. Named for its unique « double-twelve » configuration, this cutaway Dreadnought acoustic-electric is a unison-strung 12-string that draws on traditional Latin styles to serve up a bold, vibrant voice with a clear midrange character and a dash of low-end warmth. A solid Hawaiian koa top yields a punchy response that will grow warmer and sweeter as the wood matures with time and play, with a variant of Taylor’s proprietary V-Class voicing architecture inside to dial up more volume and longer sustain. As a Deluxe model, this Doce Doble features upgraded appointments including a gloss-finish body with a shaded edgeburst treatment for the entire guitar, Sentinel fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, black binding with a matching pickguard, a single-ring rosette, and gold hardware. It ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.
